Some life jackets are scratchy and uncomfortable. This one is pretty soft and made of a neoprene material. It was easy to get on and my little one didn’t mind wearing it.

Such a fun summer patter and secure design, perfect for the little ones!

My son loves this swim vest! It keeps him safe in the deep end of the pool and is great for kids learning to swim.

It seems the negative reviews are from people looking for a true PFD. This is a swim vest—it only has a small amount of buoyancy to help developing swimmers. This is not sufficient for use in open water or survival, but it is for use in supervised pools to help swimmers in training.

This is not a life jacket to keep your child floating. Which I was okay with. However, it leaves terrible burns on my son & nephew. The material rubbed their necks, armpits, and lower back completely raw. We are going to try with a swim shirt next time but I’m not sure it will help not rub on their necks.

We are out of town and forgot our life jackets. My L.O. is 5 y.o. and weighs 42 lbs, I bought size large (age 4-6, 45 lbs - 60 lbs). This did not keep him afloat, which is all I really need in a life jacket. He sunk in the water and would not let go of me the entire time. I do not recommend buying this one for your L.O. You may need to go up to the junior size (50 lbs - 90 lbs) in this brand otherwise try a different brand.
